You want to know how they are correctly pronounced in the US or the correct way to pronounce them in Latin?

Latin:

Pah-nah-ay-oh-loos
Lay-pee-oh-tah
Psee-loh-tsueue-bay (for the "tsueue" think "queue" with the q replaced by ts)
Geem-noh-pee-loos
Hee-grow-tsueue-bay

it's confusing because queue is not a native english word, the sound is actually closely related to the german Ü (u with umlaut [ue]) but I could also see french associations particularly with the spelling. GK would you agree?

I know mine are all wrong, but to play along, this is how I pronounce them in my head:

1.Panaeolus: Pan-aye-lee-us

2.lepiota: le-pee-oh-tuh

3.psilocybe: sigh-loh-sibe

4.gymnopilus: jim-nah-pih-lus

5.hygrocybe - high-grow-sibe


There was a link posted a while back with a wav file for each pronunciation.  But I've since lost it.

You can pronounce them however you want. It's either in "Mushrooms Demystified" or my school textbook that says a lot of mycologists disagree on pronunciation and that it's really up to you. However, I have noticed that most students and pickers pronounce Psilocybe...Sill-O-Sibe and that most of our guest speakers say sill-oss-a-bee. 

I'm in the first camp. Hows about you?



u asking me?

The word Psilocybe isn't Latin anyway...it's based on Greek, FYI, although the prefix "psi" does exist in Latin.  Also, we have no freaking idea how Latin was actually pronounced, so what the heck. 


Pana-ee-oh-lus

Leh-pie-oh-tah

Sigh-low-sigh-bay

Gym-know-pie-lus

Hi-grow-sigh-bay
